      What's your point? It was one of Khan's smaller fights. In bigger fights, he has always been the headliner and done far better in almost all kinds of numbers you can think of than supposed stars like Broner or Thurman etc. Khan's not even American may I remind you.

      Khan is a fan on both sides of the Atlantic, the last time he fought on terrestrial TV in Britain, at like 3 in the morning, he did 6 million viewers.

      I really will no longer argue about Khan's legitimacy as a draw. We can talk about quality of opposition, Kell's belt, who Mayweather wants to fight more but this argument is idiotic.
      Sorry to have to correct you but...

      The venue was less than half full, tickets were being given away free.

      Khan's 'Army' of US Fans consisted of his wife's extended family and a Bolton Mini cab firm on a weekend NY break.

      Khan has not sold out a venue in the UK (or USA) in years.

        I just tried to add a few steps of logic into your non existent thought process and now you don't even have a reply except dumb stubbornness.

        It's not my fault you are incapable of seeing a shade grey.... Brook gets his first decent victory of his career against porter, calls khan out and khan says not interested YET.... and that's a duck?

        Khan has been dead set on mayweather back from when brook was a bigger nobody than he currently is, you guys are acting like brook is an obvious game changer for khan's plans..... Delusional.
        Well you clearly do because you're not even entertaining the notion that Khan is ducking. Admitting so would make you doubt your idol.

        If Khan came out and said "in a few years - not now" after Brook beat porter then fine, but he keeps changing the reasons and back peddles. Not a good look for someone who isn't ducking.

          bodies in flight is actually a reasonably likable dude.


          i remember recently that he showed up in a thread about a shooting to take a shot at america. marines, who are often kids not long removed from high school, were shot and killed.

          my cousin is a marine. he's 20 years old, and extremely immature. he'd probably cry for his mom if you rolled up on him with a gun. he's just a kid. most marines are just kids.


          you rolled up in a thread that concerned the death of kids to make jokes.
          i've got an agenda doe.

            Like I said, your argument is dead on arrival. Stay hating though.

              Khan has said many things, and he has definitely said brook is there down the road.


              Now if your point is that Khan contradicts himself and this is such a heinous obscene crime I'll leave you to have fun with it... But notice one thing.... You got no reply once you take the blinkers off!

                I think the fact that you look like this...



                ....drives ALL of your posting.

                Why again would you be talking about Froch/Ward in a thread about Khan/Brook?

                  I understand him saying that they should wait till the fight grows, but I couldnt tell if he was using mayweather vs pacauiao just as an example or if he honestly believes he can generate the same amount of money against brook because I believe that wont happen for awhile if not ever

                      i thoguht you didn't read my posts?

                      the only thing more pathetic is posting a "DNR" gif is posting one after you read the post and feel inferior because of it.

                      carl froch is a lesser quantity than andre ward.


                      you still up for an endurance race? and i'm not talking about finding out who can blow more ******* up his nose.

                      let's put a backpack on and climb something tall.
